44 Noel – Becoming a Problem for the Neighbors

The home at 44 Noel is becoming a problem for neighbors who are seeing the problems on the property add up.

“It’s just ridiculous,” said one resident who did not want to be identified. “We now have people from all parts of the neighborhood feeding the stay cats, but they are feeding everything that walks by!”

“Teenagers come and go when they please and now they’re just spraying the graffiti inside, all over the place,” said the neighbor, who is ultimately worried about another fire or collapse of a large satellite dish. “The kids are using it as a hangout, they went in through a crawlspace and opened the door.”

The neighbor has tried, unsuccessfully, to complain to 911, call 311, catch the kids in the act and speak with the people feeding the wild animals.

“It’s pretty frustrating because we can’t get the owner to properly secure the property.”

Much of the vandalism has happened over the past six months, but has made a stronger presence over the past two weeks. The neighbor says not uncommon to see graffiti splashed on walls and vacant homes in this area, but now it has become personal.
